People who aren’t voting for Jonas need to get some perspectives. These were all lows, but Jonas treatment was despicable and went way beyond just football.

People need to stop telling other people what to think and do.  :lol:

Just found this pearler, Llambias prattling on about how expensive it is to buy a scoreboard.

 

(Swear the insufferable prick talked about the £1.2m cost of this for YEARS.  In the same breath as transfer funds.  Then didn't buy a scoreboard.  Or players).

 

However in the same quote he also manages to make a completely untrue pledge regarding future capacity and have a dig at the fans in the next sentence.

 

“We can expand the stadium by another 8,000. The fans have to come on board and fill up the stadium we have here first.

 

“We would love to build it up to 60,000. But we’re not there yet. The market is tough – there are a lot of people out there who are suffering.

 

“We understand that and we try to be realistic. We have a new commercial director, Barry Webber, and one of his projects is to get out there and get some sponsors on board on a jumbotron scoreboard.

 

“I love a scoreboard. The issues are the locations and the cost – it is almost £1.2m.”

:lol: Wow. Don't remember these quotes at all.

 

From 'a 60,000 seater SJP isn't financially viable' to 'basic training facilities aren't financially viable' in a few short years.

 

It really sums up their ability to consistently drag our whole fanbase's expectations down over these thirteen years.

Forgot about that clusterfuck.

 

I recognised the name Barry Webber for some reason and just looked him up. He lasted 17 months working for Llambeezee and co :lol: Went to West Ham, then Stevenage and has been commercial director of Palace for the last 4.5 years.

So many depressing moments but nadir had to be Joe Fucking Kinnear. I mean, how much lower could a club possibly sink?

 

Rafa hurt and hurt bad but he had raised our spirits considerably before leaving

 

JFK though, we we bottom of the ocean but then fell into the Marianas Trench low.
